Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 80% lithium aluminum hydride (294 mg, 6.35 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) was added a solution of methyl 2-phenylfuro[3,2-c]pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-1-carboxylate (465 mg, 1.59 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 5 min. Sodium sulfate decahydrate (4.3 g) was added under ice-cooling, and the insoluble material was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by recrystallization (ethyl acetate) to give the title compound (367 mg, yield 87%).
